RV Brake Maintenance

Brakes are your most critical safety system. RV and trailer brakes should be inspected annually and replaced when pads/shoes are worn to 3mm or less.

Electric Brakes (Trailers)

Most travel trailers and fifth wheels use electric drum brakes. These are activated by a brake controller in your tow vehicle. Replace magnets and shoes together for best performance.

Hydraulic Disc Brakes

Common on motorhomes and some high-end trailers. Similar to car brakes. Provide better stopping power and heat dissipation than electric drums.

Air Brakes

Found on large Class A diesel pushers. Require a special license (CDL) in some states. Maintenance is more complex and typically requires professional service.
